The First Album You Bought

I didn't make myself clear I guess. (not uncommon for me) 😖 My player played 45 rpm records> I've never seen or heard of an album at that speed. The only albums I know are 33 1/3, 78. Sorry for any confusion.

No problem. Keesha posted a link to a very interesting article about 45 rpm albums. Lots of older tech speak. Check it out.
 
I think that he might mean the “extended play” 45rpm’s. @treeguy64 . I remember having at least one of those by Elvis. It had about 2 songs on each side, instead of the normal one song.
I think mine was from the “Wild in the Country” movie.
 
I never bought many albums growing up because a friend of my Dad's loaded jukeboxes and gave me and my sister 45's records all the time. The only Album I remember buying was by Nat King Cole after I saw him in person. I was about 16yrs old at the time.
 
I never bought an album for myself until I was in college and the first one was Jethro Tull, "Thick as a Brick", sometime in my freshman year, '71 -'72.
The second one was Grateful Dead, "American Beauty".
 
you can trace the different periods of your life using music bookmarkers,
rock and roll
hillbilly-cash, nelson, nelson
folk (Baez still the one, Collins and can't remember he other's name name)
back to a new brand of rock and roll
heavy metal-no, no, no
classical
flopped over to opera, but only mezzo, Calles died in 77, cult strong as ever
then Harry Chapin, Harry was my starting and stopping point, sure there are still fine artists (do that merit being labeled as artist
their voice's merely pleases a large number of people?)

Now listen to whatever is on radio primarily hillbilly
